Sure, once it's Hillary v. whoever the GOP nominee is, I'll do whatever's necessary to make sure she wins. But now I really, really want to see her get a strong opponent for the nomination. Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, whoever.

But for the Democratic nomination, I am NOT going to support someone who is chummy with war criminals. Fuck that shit. A friend of the devil is no friend of mine.

(This was from her interview on NPR's Morning Edition this morning. Shortly after the part where she says about the Bush Administration, ""We were viewed as being untrustworthy, as violating our moral rules and values." And this differs from Kissinger how?

Reminds you of those days when politicians could get away with comparing homosexuality to kleptomania and the like. Looks like somebody didn't get the memo that times have changed. Most Americans, thank goodness, have realized that being gay isn't a disease, isn't a perversion, isn't anything that needs a 'cure,' especially not one that is snake oil all the way down.

Ladies and gentlemen of the Texas GOP, I realize you're not ready to endorse gay marriage yet, and probably won't be for a while yet. Isn't that being sufficiently behind the times, without reaching back all the way to reparative therapy? The 1990s called, and says to freakin' give it up.

These problems seem to be happening more and more around the country, due to the GOP's aversion to spending money on maintaining our nation's infrastructure because it might help the economy while Obama is President.

So I penned a little ditty, which you can sing to the tune of Pink Floyd's "The Wall":

We don't need no infrastructureWe don't need no highway roadsNo bridges spanning all those riversHey! Obama! Leave our roads alone!All in all, it's time for all the bridges to fall.
